Kids Camp Video
Here is a short 4 minute video with clips of the Kids Camp run in Gorom-Gorom, Burkina Faso in August. It was run jointly by the churches of Gorom-Gorom, and by Glenwood Church.
This clip is not brilliant quality and it misses so much, but I hope it gives you an idea of the fun we had.
We had planned for about 100 children, and ended up with over 200 - about half from Christian homes, and half from Muslim families. It was excellent! The local Christians and pastors did a great job leading the camp, brilliantly supported by Pete, Maggie, Haoua, and Trudi. And God, of course.
As well as having teaching about Jesus, games, singing, football, and craft work, we also planted trees on the grounds of the new primary school that we are hoping to build. It was a great time.
I'm already looking forward to the next one!
